43. Separatism And Western Canadian Culture
Separatism and Western canadian culture. This again causes Western canadian cultureto be undermined, and a great load of frustration placed upon it.
http://www.westcan.org/westcan/culture.htm
Separatism and Western Canadian Culture
(This Supplement to the Western Separatist Papers originally appeared in WSP, Volume V, No. 2, February 1987)
Bilingualism
The imposition of compulsory bilingualism in the federal civil service, federal Crown corporations, and other institutions, as well as within a steadily expanding provincial context (e.g. Manitoba) has been discussed often in terms of dollars, but there is a cost in terms of culture as well. It is a subject some hesitate to confront for fear of being labelled a "bigot," but the fact remains that the federal government’s policies of compulsory bilingualism at once superimpose upon Western Canada an unnatural cultural framework, and rob Westerners of the resources that would have gone to build the natural culture of Western Canada. These policies (now entrenched within the Constitution of 1982. never voted on by any Western Canadians) have resulted in frustration and anger, and have if anything, damaged the social tolerance of Western Canada. For an indepth study of this problem - and its effect on Canada as a whole - see Peter Brimelow’s book, "The Patriot Game," available through your local bookstore at approx. $25.00, published by Key Porter Books.
Metrication
The system of measures a culture uses is another type of language. When that language is altered without the consent of the people, frustration results. In the case of the metric system, whatever its merits, chaos in many areas has also resulted. (eg. agriculture). This has once more kept Western Canadians busy, spending their valuable time and money on a non-productive endeavour, and has enabled the masking of various disastrous federal policies such as the National Energy Program.

Quebec
Bordered by Ontario, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and some American States, Quebec has an area of 1,450,680 square kilometres, making it the largest of Canada's provinces. The St. Lawrence River, the province's dominant geographical feature, links the Atlantic Ocean with the Great Lakes. The St. Lawrence lowlands are dotted with more than a million lakes and rivers and Quebec's forests are some of the largest in the world. Quebec was originally inhabited by Algonquin and Iroquois Aboriginal people. The northern part of the province was, and still is, inhabited by the Inuit. The European history of Quebec began with the arrival of the French explorer Jacques Cartier in 1534. The thriving fur trade brought many French and British colonists. Founded in 1608, Quebec City became the capital of New France. During the French regime, the fortified city was an important centre of trade and development. The French-English rivalry in North America culminated with the Seven Years' War which saw the fall of Quebec City to British forces in 1759. New France then became a colony of Britain. In 1791, the colony was divided in two to create Lower Canada (Quebec) and Upper Canada (now Ontario). In 1867, Quebec became a founding member of the new Dominion of Canada. Throughout Quebec's history, the survival of the French culture has been central to the concerns of Quebeckers. It reflects Quebec's distinct place in the Canadian Confederation and gives Canada its bilingual character and cultural richness. French continues to be the dominant language in the province.

It has been said in jest that a fair percentage of Canadian culture rests in the effort to distinguish itself culturally from its southern neighbour, the United States . However, while the two regions share some aspects of a common cultural heritage, there is certainly a separately identifiable " Canadian culture." This is marked by such elements as a greater integration of Native American cultures than elsewhere in the Americas; the retention of traditions descended from those of French settlers; and a notable infusion of Celtic settlers in later phases of the region's history. One matter of contention in the effort to study Canadian culture rests in the fact of Canada's bilingualism; there is little reason to question the distinct identity of the English - and French -speaking peoples of Canada. However, John Ralston Saul conjectures that Gabrielle Roy is better known in anglophone Canada than in France, and more French-Canadians than Americans know of Margaret Laurence and Atom Egoyan Table of contents 1 Canadian art

M ulticulturalism Newcomers to multicultural Canada are encouraged to maintain their homeland's culture and language, unlike most countries, where they are expected to blend into the existing socio-cultural fabric. Although participating in your ethnic community is understandable, adjusting successfully to life in Canada is easier if you involve yourself in mainstream Canadian activities. B ilingualism Canada is officially bilingual. The federal government works in the two official languages - English and French. H uman Rights Canada and its provinces have human rights laws to protect people against discrimination on the basis of race, sex, skin colour, disability, or sexual orientation. If you feel you have been denied a job, place to live, or service in a restaurant or hotel for any of these reasons, you can complain to national or provincial human rights commissions. Racial violence, child and spousal abuse, assault and threats of assault are against the law in Canada. You can call the police if you or your child experience these injustices.

Synopsis Contents Praise and Reviews Book Cover L. M. Montgomery and Canadian Culture Edited by Irene Gammel and Elizabeth Epperly www.utppublishing.com/detail.asp?TitleID=1833 Synopsis Despite the enormous popularity of her books, particularly Anne of Green Gables, L.M. Montgomery's role in the development of Canada's national culture is not often discussed by literary historians. This is curious as some of Canada's leading writers, including Margaret Atwood, Alice Munro, and Jane Urquhart, have acknowledged their indebtedness to Montgomery's fiction. That scholars have not mined the 'Canadianness' of Montgomery's writing is redressed by this collection. It is the first systematic effort to investigate and explore Montgomery's active engagement with Canadian nationalism and identity, including regionalism, canon formation, and Canadian-American cultural relations. It examines her work in relation to the many dramatic changes of her day, such as the women's movement and the advent of new technologies; and it looks at the national and international consumption of Anne of Green Gables, in the form of both 'high' culture and cultural tourism. The wide range of contributors represent views from across disciplines and boundaries, including feminist, biographical, psychoanalytical, historical, and cultural approaches. The scholarly reflections are punctuated to great effect by creative pieces, personal reflections, and interviews.

... Writing an Essay These short pieces are from the Advanced Composition class held on Thursday, Mar. 9, 2000. Our topic was about how Canadians have different cultural behaviours from other cultures. The results follow. Back home people are very friendly. For example, speaking loudly is something normal in my culture. But, here, speaking loudly is something rude or impolite. If a person speaks too loud in Canada, people make a face, or say “shush”, or maybe think that you are fighting. In Canada, when I want to walk across the road, most drivers will stop and let me go first, even when I am just standing by the roadside and wondering whether I need to go or not. They will wait there stubbornly, so I have to go across in a hurry. But in China, drivers seldom wait for people who want to walk across the street. The drivers are afraid that if they do so, the driver will never go. So, in China, walkers and drivers always seize up when they are trying to decide who should go. Saying “hi” in Canada seems to be very informal to me. In Iran, a warm “hi” depends on a stronger relationship, but it seems that in Canada, it is diverse or different. For example, when a Canadian goes shopping, he says “hi” to the salesman, but when he meets his close friend, he may say “What’s up?”

Tough Rules Stand Guard Over
Canadian Culture
By Anthony DePalma
New York Times
July 14, 1999 Lenny Kravitz's raunchy remake of the '70s classic "American Woman" had been thoroughly dissected, and the music director of Toronto's CHUM-FM radio station was satisfied that it was, indeed, Canadian. Surprising, since neither the singer nor the subject of the song has a direct connection to the Great White North. But the music and anti-American lyrics reflecting common Canadian views were written by members of the Guess Who, a popular Canadian band of the 1970s. That gives "American Woman" the two points it needs under Canada's intricate system of rankings to help meet CHUM-FM's government-imposed requirement that 35 percent of its daytime playlist be devoted to Canadian content. Determining what to do with "Baby Feel My . . ." by Patria, a young Filipino artist, was not so easy. "She came to Canada at age 2, but I think she's a landed immigrant now," said Barry Stewart, CHUM-FM's music director, as the weekly music meeting dragged on. "That makes her Canadian, right?"
